Models consider the effects of production and injection rates and natural recharge on the pressure or water level behavior of a low-temperature, liquid dominated geothermal reservoir. Reservoir and aquifer are represented by different tanks and the effect of recharge source is studied. Tank systems used

These models consider the effects of fluid production and reinjection, as well as natural recharge, on the pressures (or water levels) of low-temperature, liquid-dominated geothermal systems. The computed responses for constant production/injection flow rates are given in the form of analytical expressions. Variable flow rate cases are modeled, based on the Duhamel's principle. Reservoir parameters are obtained by applying a weighted nonlinear least-squares estimation technique in which measured field data are history matched to the corresponding model response. By using history-matched models, the future performance of the reservoir can be predicted for different production/injection scenarios in order to optimize the management of a given geothermal system.We demonstrate the applicability of the models by simulating measured data from the Laugarnes geothermal field in Iceland, and the Balcova–Narlidere field in Turkey.
